The Electric Well.


Some folks who have had benefit from the
electric well believe in 1t. Other people who
failed to be cured, denounce 1t. as fraud.
This Is a common occurrence, even mt the
miraculous fountains of Europe. Thousands
have been mysteriously made whole at
Lourdes. Hundreds In spite Of prayer, have
not been benefited. The fortunate ones pray
TO God and bless him. II Is not uncommon
for the unfortunate TO revie. If this be true
of fountains that are presumed to be superna-
tural In their effects, how can a "plain Geor-
gia" electric well hope 70 command the credit
Of all who try It's healing properties? We
have no doubt that our electric we'll is good
for some persons and not for others. Like
Lula Hurst, 1t may lose its power eventually,
still has virtue of an unusual kind.
1t Is said that burnt brandy would not save
the stomachs of men who have abused the
digestive functions beyond repair. 1t IL per-
haps equally true that nothing short OF super
natural grace could restore the functions OF
rheumatic or gouty contingent who have no
margin for any human thing to experiment
upon wh0lesomely.
